Uncle Crawford is an inspiration because of his love for life and people. Not only has he served our country but he has been a shining example of what a man should be. Crawford was the best son, brother, uncle, cousin, father and friend that anyone could hope for. He has seen such tragedy in his life but through it all he fought to live but God decided to take him home on May 9th at 10:45PM at the VA Hospital in Houston, Texas. This marks the end of his battle, he is gone but not forgotten. We all love him and will miss him always. Crawford had a full military funeral with horse drawn caisson and gun salute. He went home like a king and will be remembered for all that he did and all that he was to his family and friends.
